So yeah - used a few polishes today. This doesn't include the gold (that you probably didn't even notice) or the white I used to write with.

Manglaze - Fattys Got More Blood

Manglaze - Santorum

Zoya - Veruschka

Bourjois - Jaune Trendy

Milani - Shady Grey (texture)

Since I didn't have book colored texture polishes, I started with a base of the Milani textured polish on all nails. After it had fully texturized, I sponged on the top color to each nail.

Pinky - Fattys Got More Blood over Shady Grey

Ring - Jaune Trendy over Shady Grey

Middle - Veruschka over Shady Grey

Index - Santorum over Shady Grey

Then I did a baroque style stamp down the center of each nail using China Glaze Passion (but once you add the textured spine lines and lettering you hardly see it) - added stripes in the same colors with a striping brush and then I added in the book titles.

So what do you think? Do they look like old leather bound books?

I couldn't do this post without including THIS:

Make sure and visit the rest of the Digital Dozen and see their final Book Week mani's too! MUAH!
